Geography
Intent: - At Beaumont Primary School, our vision is to provide all of our children with a geography curriculum that gives pupils an understanding of the world around them, its environments, places near and far, and the processes that create and affect them. To achieve this, we provide carefully sequenced lessons which feature meaningful fieldwork and introduce a progression of geography concepts that enable pupils to build up a breadth and depth of geographical knowledge, understanding and skills so that ultimately, they can ask and answer geographical questions such as ‘why is this place like this?’, ‘how is this place changing?’ and ‘how are other places affected?’
